Well i graduated c25k and then went on holidays for 2 weeks.I packed my running gear with all the good intentions of going out for a jog I failed miserably 🙁So after taking full advantage of all inclusive to the max and 6lbs heavier I put on my trusty running shoes and w6 and Laura went out the first 5 mins were a shock to the system but once I got my breathing and pace right it got easier.Will do a day of w7 and gradually get back to where I was fingers crossed 😊🤞

You'll get back and used to running in know time . You enjoyed your holiday that's the main thing. Good luck 😊

You’ll be back!! I’m always banging on about the Japanese slow jogging technique, but I do think it’s really helpful technique to learn for times like this (or after injury, illness or whatever thwarts our running plans!)

It’s worth noting the key landing and short stride parts as it’s a little bit more than just running slowly! It might help you go straight back to your 30 mins, but listen to your body. Hope the holiday was great!
